by the Polynesians. The influences for modern surfing can be
directly traced to the surfers of pre-contact Hawaii.

The art of surfing, called he'enalu in the Hawaiian
language, was first described in 1769 by Joseph Banks on
the HMS Endeavour during the first voyage of Captain
James Cook. Surfing was a central part of ancient
Polynesian culture and predates European contact. Boards
back then where made out of wood. Hawaiian people
integrated surfing into their culture and made surfing more
of an art than anything else.

there a lot of surfing competition all over the world each
year.

surfing are:
Longboarding Stand up paddle surfing
Shortboarding

style, and the kind of wave that is ridden.
